Pat Mesiti – Soaring Higher

Pat Mesiti International Motivational Speaker gives you principles to soar higher!
(excerpt taken from Pat Mesiti’s new book “Soaring Higher”)

You can't steer a parked car

During one of the moments of crisis in my life, the feeling of despair and failure rendered me very immobile. I became a dejected person and this frustrated me. On top of that, I struggled with depression, to the point where I couldn’t get through the day without anti-depressants. It’s easier now to look back and tell you what was happening to me: I was focussing on my current situation, on my pain. My mind became immobile. It wasn’t moving forward, it wasn’t creating, and that only caused me to fall into even further discouragement and deeper depression. I wondered how I was ever going to get out of that situation.

But here’s what I did: I decided I had to stop looking at the current problem and start looking forward. I had to create a dominant image in my mind that was going to propel me forward. The next thing I did was to develop an action plan. The third thing I did was to surround myself with the kind of people who were going forward, and who weren’t going to just feel sorry for me. I can tell you, friend, it worked!

What would your children think of you if you went into the garage and began to steer the car? You don’t turn the ignition on, you aren’t moving, but night after night you get into that car and move that wheel to the left and to the right. Surely your wife, your children and your friends would think you are crazy. You're not going forward just sitting and steering!

So many people do that in life. They want to get ahead, they want to be successful, they want to make a lot of money, they want to be known for great things, they want to achieve... but they forget to turn the ignition on in order to get moving. So many people have the attitude of ‘one day I'm gonna... one day I will’. 

If you want to get ahead you have to get moving. You can't steer a parked car. You can't give the vehicle of your life direction unless you get it moving forward. It's no good spinning your wheels. Too many people just spin the wheels. They burn a lot of rubber, make a lot of noise and blow a lot of smoke, but they’re not going forward.

Challenge

It’s time to get your dream on the road again. Don't keep it parked in the garage of disappointment, despair, frustration and let-down. Turn the ignition on, put the pedal to the metal, get moving and steer yourself towards a great destiny.
